Last night, the fourth graders embarked on a truly magical experience as they slept over at the Whaling Museum. Arriving in the early evening, as the fog became dense, the group was soon walking through the quiet downtown, stopping at places to meet people from the past, including Frederick Douglass, Maria Mitchell, and Quaker settlers. Fourth graders still in a developmental stage where reality and fantasy blend were spellbound by the experience. For me, it was a rare privilege to experience Nantucket history, coming to life through the misty fog of a cool April evening.
Please remember that on Wednesday, April 9th, school will close for all students at 12:30 pm, immediately following lunch. Teachers will be involved in a professional development opportunity from 1:00 - 4:00 pm. We appreciate your attention to this calendar shift. Thank you!
